Druid Pros/Cons

[Snaggles]

See it as risk or efficiency. My path is very safe, boring, and seldom camped. I don’t move around much. I’m not trying to entertain double digits of Twitch subscribers.

I’d rather adventure as a level 60, whether raiding or solo. Outside of melees, my casters while leveling don’t even have great gear. Burn to 60, gear and raid park, go mess around with one of them if you have nothing better to do.

I've been leveling through 58-59 knocking down mobs on the solo artist challenge list so you're telling that to the wrong person. Went to kedge before and it seemed like a giant hassle for little reward. It was more of a question than a statement as I plan on going back soonish, I have a date with estrella.

Don’t take the Kedge bait. You can hit 60 and go solo stuff there. It’s not like the loot is worth it nor the kills are frequent. Like 27 min pops for a blue? It better be like 250% zem lol.

for some the fun kinda ends at 60 when the xp bar stops moving

i was always a fan of farming while getting xp vs bumrush to 60

For others the game doesn't start until you hit 60

For some classes the better gear and new spells just opens up a lot more opportunities at 60. Doesn't mean it wasn't fun but it is barely the same game once you ding.

Harsh but true.

Goregasmic, you said you've been working on solo artist challenges on your druid? What have you attempted? Would love to get some ideas on what to try now that I'm mostly done with Kedge.

Nah I'm on an ench right now. Lurking here because if there's ever a server reboot I think I'm making a druid.

I've taken a good look at the original solo artist thread and I've seen a couple druids attempt it. So far on ench the biggest challenge is either getting to the spot or doing the pull. You can't harmony indoor but I think for a lot of targets you can root rot your way in with strategic use of camp and corners. You'll have to get comfortable with mobs that summon though, if you're not already used to that.

To each their own. Just entering a counterpoint to why some people don’t like walking a high wire without a net.

I’m still having fun on my 10th grind to 60.

This. A 60 Druid had a ton more mana regen and a targeted AoE root. It’s a pretty fancy trick for spelunking.
